problem #2

Fusion 4-cyl

It began raining hard and the wipers were on high speed, but when they moved outward I could not see because water was blinding me, had to slow down to about 40mph just to avoid running off road or into a car. Could not see out windshield at all. I have never had wipers like these, and I don't feel safe in my car in rain. Going to see if Ford can change intermittent wipers out to what most cars have. If not then we may have to get rid of this car. Driving blind is what it's like driving in heavy rain.

problem #1

Fusion

Please note, this form would not allow me to select wipers as the affected part. The only option that appeared was wheels. Please correct if possible. While driving, snow that had accumulated on the roof of the car slid on the windshield. The motion of the wipers pushed the snow down and towards the center of the windshield. The snow prohibited the wipers to move in either direction causing me to not be able to see the road. The design of the wipers appears to allow excess snow to be forced in the lower middle portion of the windshield causing the wipers to not be able to reverse direction if when the control lever is toggled.
